Our fears for the future

A poem about the fears of leaving home. Any comments or ideas would be appreciated.

Right now, we are evolving from teens to adults

We are apprehensive, we are scared, and we are unsure

But honey, you’re not alone in the struggle

So let me in.



I feel your stress, because mine is equal

I know you’re racked with indecision; because I am too

Oh baby if only you could see, that it’s just as hard for me

To think that our lives are about to change forever.



We keep thinking that if we make one wrong move, our futures will be ruined

That unhappiness will no doubt be our fate

And then there is the battle in our hearts; the fear that we will be separated

How this decision ways heavily on our minds!



But my love, my darling, my sweetheart,

I want you to know that you can share your thoughts and fears

I wish you would

Oh how I wish you would!



You don’t want to grow up baby,

But we don’t have a choice

And I hate to think that this may come between us.

My love for you is extraordinary, and I fear the future

So please, tell me you’re here to catch me if I fall.
